Does Oxon count as part of TV & Surrey, or the Midlands? For PH purposes of course!

Definatly counts as Thames Valley! wink

Lovely jubbly smile I've just started using PH again (forgot my old log-in details lol)

I shall keep an eye out for meets etc., although I currently only have my daily driver (a Yaris!) but am looking to get back into the swing of things early new year... after an Elise 111R biggrin

Good man!

Well if you are planning on coming to any runs before you get the new car then you are more than welcome to and if you don't fancy trying to keep up in a yaris I'm sure that one of us guys would be more than happy to offer you a passenger seat.

The Elise will be great fun! thumbup

Sounds like a plan indeed!!!!

Yeah the Yaris is surprisingly good fun and fairly nippy for what it is but it can barely keep up with anything ha ha! I had a lovely Mk V Golf GTI (fully loaded biggrin) that I sold back in April to buy the Yaris for the long commute to work and also, at the time the intention was to get a T350C for weekends etc. but unfortunately personal circumstances have changed and I now have to pay to live by myself so something more restrained is needed and the Elise seems to fit the bill nicely smile I'd lvoe an Exige but I'm not overly keen on used cars so an ELise is slightly more within range, can get one slightly newer and maybe higher spec for the same money I think but shall have to see what the new year brings!!

I live in Witney but work down in Newbury (at Vodafone HQ) if anyone else is local smile

I'm a few miles east of Abingdon (between Dorchester and Stadhampton). Perhaps there'd be enough of us to setup our own Oxon faction to break away from SAS. smile

wavey I recently moved away from the wonderful Northamptonshire group and am now near Didcot. I managed to make one of the TV&S monthly meets but evening meets in the OX area would be good and could maybe make it to more then. (Especially summer) cool

Hello.

We live near Winchester but have a shop in Bicester so spend too much time up that way!! Definately counts as Thames Valley as the Thames runs through the county!
